REGAL WINE IMPORTS Spirits Book REGAL WINE IMPORTS Spirits Book LYON DISTILLING Maryland, United States Lyon Rum is the flagship product of a distillery located in Saint Michaels, Maryland, steps from the Chesapeake Bay. Founded in 2012, the first full production distillery to open in Maryland in almost fifty years, they showcase a signature line of rums paying tribute to the rich, spirited tra- ditions of the Eastern Shore. Lyon spirits start with intentionally-sourced raw ingredients, and are truly hand-crafted – mashed, fermented, and double-distilled in small pot stills – every step of the way, resulting in a superior and unique final product. The goal is to create distinctly Ameri- can spirits – working to define the category of New American Rum, while experimenting with obscure and varied finishes. Every spirit passes through the hands, and discerning palates, of the Lyon Rum team.

King Cosijoeza, ruler of the city of Zaachila, had a daughter to whom he gave the name “Donaji” meaning “grand soul”. During a series of disputes, the Mixtecs took revenge on the King by sacrificing his daughter. It is said that years later when the body was found, it was still in perfect condition and beautiful species of wild lilies had grown. The State of Oaxaca created it’s shield in 1828 which is the head of the Princess Donaji laying down. The Chagoya family has been making Mezcal since the late 1800’s and five generations later make some of the finest Mezcals.

During the late 19th century, many French country folk experienced financial hardship and were forced to emigrate. Among their number was a young man, named Artaud. Artaud lived in Ercé in Ariège. The little village is at the foot of the Pyrenees, and there were many mountain bears. Artaud learned bear taming, at which he was particularly adept. With his two bears in tow he left for America. In 1912, Artaud returned to France and happened upon the Tariquet wine estate in Éauze. His meagre savings were not enough to purchase the estate and so he invited his son, Jean-Pierre Artaud who lived in New York, to buy the property with him. As most of the vines had been destroyed by phylloxera, all that was left were seven hectares of vineyards in a sorry state. With the onset of the First World War, Jean-Pierre returned to France to fight, leaving his wife, Pauline, in New York. After the war, the couple travelled back to France. Upon their return they bore a child, Hélène. Meanwhile, on the other side of the Pyrenees, a Frenchman of Spanish- descent, Pierre Grassa, worked as a laborer. He enrolled with the Joinville battalion and during the Second World, Pierre’s unit was taken captive. Eventually, he escaped and fought with the French Resistance in Éauze. It was here that he met the lovely Hélène. They fell madly in love and painstakingly restored Tariquet. The estate began producing Bas- Armagnac once more. In 1972, with the help of two of his children, Yves and Maïté, Pierre established a company to sell their Armagnacs. The company had received much acclaim and produces a wide range of Bas- Armagnacs. BAS ARMAGNAC, 8 YR., 100% FOLLE BLANCHE 101° Produced in France from the Folle Blanche grape, this Armagnac is distilled in an alembic pot still heated by wood. It’s aged for 8 years in lightly toasted French oak barrels where it picks up color and complexity, and bottled at cask strength to preserve its flavors and aromas.

Golden-Yellow with a clean, intense nose expressing softness with vanilla and a pleasant note of cocoa. The esters are subdued, and reveal exotic fragrances when the brandy is exposed to the air. This unusual Bas Armagnac brandy offer a comprehensive and surprising aromatic palette combined with distinctive strength and complexity. In the mouth it is magnificent: round, rich, smooth and fine. Although full, it remains fresh and expressive. An Armagnac that lingers without end and expresses a perfect marriage between fruit and wood. Bottled at cask strength to preserve its flavors and aromas.

Aged in oak barrels at least 3 years. A beautiful amber shade of antique gold. The bouquet initially suggests freshly baked bread and light toffee. Aeration reveals a gentle warmth that intensifies, leading to notes of candied angelica. The palate is bold and youthful, with a touch of vanilla, suffused with the heat of distillation and the youth of roasted oak. A brandy full of supple tenderness. 616-007-7NV 750 ml x 6 $222/case $37.00/bottle VSOP BAS ARMAGNAC DECANTER 60% Ugni-blanc, 40% Baco. Aged in oak barrels at least 7 years.

Good length with a hint of macerated stone fruit on the finish.

Without Bertie we might not wear tweed or ever eat roast beef and Yorkshire pudding on a Sunday. The bottom button of our waistcoats would have remained fastened. Bertie was a true diplomat, ‘The Uncle of Europe’. He was also a gambler, a cigar smoker, and occasional drinker. He would, we hope, have felt at home here.

Being based in Inveraray, a sizeable proportion of the visitors to our shop in the Summer come from overseas and one of our lots is to try and explain why Scotch is dearer in Scotland than it is in the vast majority of countries. Explain- ing that it is the duty (and the tax on the duty) does not ease their bewilder- ment; why is such a tax levied on a Brit- ish product by the British Government? Answers on a postcard please. In November a confident Chancellor boasted that he understood the injustice of the tax regime on drink, particularly Scotch. However, hopes for a reduction in the rate of duty were little compen- sated by a third successive freeze.

This is the heartland of whisky and is a popular destination for whisky enthusiasts from all around the world. Many come to devote themselves to the Holy Mother of Malts! Home to over half of the distilleries around Scotland, it is a treat to discover an array of aromas and flavours that will leave you wanting more. Famous for light, fruity characteristics, each distillery has its own unique quirks, creating a very long bucket list of distilleries to sample. SPEYSIDE ABERLOUR DISTILLERY Aberlour translates to Obar Lobhair in Gaelic meaning ‘the mouth of the talkative or noisy stream’, and was founded by James Fleming in 1879, whose family motto is, ‘Let the deed show”. The distillery is supplied by the Rivers Lour and Spey, which is a short distance from Ben Rinnes and is in the heart of Speyside. As a little curiosity, the distillery pours a bottle of Aberlour 12-year-old into the River Spey every year, to mark the start of the salmon fishing season in February. This little ritual is to ‘bless’ the water in hope of a good fishing season for locals.
